Jay A. Gertzman wrote: "By 1931, Bell had retired from medical practice to write about his chief interests, which included poetry, travel, and protection of the country's wildlife and pastoral vistas....In June 1931, Bell died at his home when a shotgun he had rigged to fire at a possible intruder killed him as he entered his house. [Samuel] Roth contacted police, theorizing that his friend had been murdered." —
